Ralph’s Reviews: ‘The Curse of the Scruft’ is Unleashed

After releasing their debut EP “Brain Potion” in March, Kutztown, PA’s Scruft got right back to work and their latest effort drops today. “The Curse of the Scruft” is a unique blend of punk and psychedelic rock, and is a nice follow-up to their earlier release.

Nicholas Neely (guitar/vocals) stands out with some catchy licks throughout. This is especially evident on “The Gentrifier,” an instrumental track that rounds out the three-song EP. Elsewhere, “Eat Grass” features a soft, tasteful bass solo from Jacob Shuby about halfway through, and Landy Hoffman is solid on drums.

You can check out the band on Bandcamp or Facebook to learn more. Also, I highly recommend giving them a listen on Spotify now.
